A website is helping computer users improve their posture by showing a blurred screen when they start to slouch.

Fix Posture uses a machine learning program to create a baseline of where a user's body parts are when assuming a good posture.

The user begins by correcting their posture which includes keeping the screen at eye level, relaxing shoulders and putting their feet flat on the ground.

The technology requires a camera and the screen will go blurry when the user isn't sitting correctly. The camera will constantly check the user's position through the webcam.

Taking these measures creates will lead to the creation of reference points for the program to use when checking your posture.

If a person slouches, the users eyes or shoulders drop from their previous position, and the screen blurs.

If thighs are not parallel with their body or feet do not remain flat, the user's eyes and shoulders change position and the screen will then go blurry.

The experiment only works on the Fix Posture site, however it gives advice to workers on how to maintain their posture at a computer screen while in work.

The user can also set a reminder to return to the website every hour to ensure they are sitting correctly, according to Motherboard.

In a tweet, Olesya Chernyavskaya, the designer of the software, said: 'Are you sitting with correct posture right now? My new experiment detects your posture and blurs a screen if it’s poor. Made with @TensorFlow.js, #PoseNet Model.'
